Package: iptables
Version: 1.4.6-2
Severity: important

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

I have a small home network consisting on my desktop that acts as a
gateway and another local computer.
Before I upgraded to 2.6.32 from 2.6.26 my local network worked fine.
My iptables rules worked without any problem.
> Before I upgraded to 2.6.32 from 2.6.26 my local network worked fine.
>> Before I upgraded to 2.6.32 from 2.6.26 my local network worked fine!!!
After the upgrade the network on the local computer stopped working.

Assuming that this might have been some incompatibility I've upgrade
several other packages (eg, ipfilters, netbase, ...), but to no avail.

I can ping the local computer from my gateway and vice-versa.
And I can also ssh from the local computer to the gateway.

The routing tables are ok, resolv.conf is ok, ip forwarding is ok.
I get no error messages with dmesg when doing:
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth2 -j MASQUERADE

by looking at the Debian Official Kernel Configuration files the
kernel linux-image-2.6.32-trunk-amd64 has options:
CONFIG_NF_NAT=m
CONFIG_NF_NAT_NEEDED=y
CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_MASQUERADE=m

I have at least these modules loaded:
# lsmod | grep -i masquer ; lsmod | grep -i nat ; lsmod | grep -i track
ipt_MASQUERADE          1554  1
nf_nat                 13340  2 ipt_MASQUERADE,iptable_nat
nf_conntrack           46359  5

nf_conntrack_ipv4       9817  7 iptable_nat,nf_nat
nf_defrag_ipv4          1139  1 nf_conntrack_ipv4
nf_conntrack           46359  5
ipt_MASQUERADE,iptable_nat,nf_nat,nf_conntrack_ipv4,xt_state

I used tcpdump on the $LAN and $WAN NICs on the gateway while I tried
to ping google.com from the local computer. The packets reach the
gateway but then nothing happens. No reference of google.com with
tcpdump on the $WAN side.

I also tried having the rules:
iptables -F INPUT;iptables -F OUTPUT;iptables -F FORWARD
But nothing...

If you need an how-to reproduce this bug, see section 5.2 of:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/home-router-howto.xml#doc_chap5

Someone please fix this! Debian/GNU/Linux is giving me ulcers!
Thank you!
